Ongelooflike selfsorg verblyf in die Karoo.

Ek het om laaste oomblik bespreek (die aand voor die tyd!) maar die kommunikasie was onmiddellik en effektief. Dit is nie die eerste keer wat ek by The Vale Karoo Farm geslaap het nie, so ek het geweet wat om te verwag, en dit het weereens nie teleurgestel nie. Ek het spesifiek 'n selfsorg huisie met twee kamers bespreek, maar toe ons inklok is ons ingedeel in 'n dubbelkamer huisie. Dit is egter onmiddelik reggestel toe ek vra dat ons twee-slaapkamer-eenheid kan kry. Die braaipakkies was uitsonderlik lekker. Twee skaaptjoppies en twee stukke wors per persoon wat baie lekker gesout is. Die braaibroodjies en aartappelslaai wat ons bestel het, was ook voortreflik. Hout en vuuraanstekers wat ons gekoop het, was genoeg. Dit was net 'n lekker aand in die Karoo met 'n mooi sonsondergang, 'n groot vuur, lekker skaaptjops met bykosse, en brandewyn. Wat wil mens nou beter hê!

Incredible self-catering accommodation in the Karoo.

I booked at the last minute (the night before!) but the communication was immediate and effective. This is not the first time I have slept at The Vale Karoo Farm, so I knew what to expect, and once again it did not disappoint. I specifically booked a self-catering cottage with two rooms, but when we checked in we were assigned to a double-room cottage. However, this was immediately rectified when I asked for a two-bedroom unit. The braai packets were exceptionally tasty. Two mutton chops and two pieces of sausage per person which are very nicely salted. The fries and potato salad we ordered were also excellent. Wood and firelighters we bought were enough. It was just a nice evening in the Karoo with a beautiful sunset, a big fire, nice lamb chops with side dishes, and brandy. What better could one want!

Heerlike rustige Karoo-stop!

Ons het 'n heerlike rustige middag gehad. Daar is 'n lieflike dam om in te swem. Die ontvangs het basiese lekkers / koeldranke wat oulik is. Daar was ook vir die feesseisoen 'n drankies-spytkaart in die kamer - ons het lekker cocktails bestel wat vir ons na die kamer toe gebring is! Die braaibroodjies wat ons saam met ons braaivleis bestel het, was bitter lekker! Ons sal beslis weer hier stop!

Lovely peaceful Karoo stop!

We had a lovely peaceful afternoon. There is a lovely pond to swim in. The reception has basic sweets / soft drinks which are cute. There was also a drinks menu in the room for the festive season - we ordered nice cocktails that were brought to our room! The braai buns we ordered with our braai meat were delicious! We will definitely stop here again!

Gerieflik met frustrasies.

Die "honeymoon suite" se matras is voos. Geen asblik in die kamer nie. Vergroot asb. die stort! Geen rekening is ontvang vir die ekstras nie, net gesê wat die bedrag is. Die "tiebacks" by die gordyne is baie los.

Misleidende advertensie en onbevredigende verblyf.

Daar is geen afdak vir jou motor of WiFi (as daar was het hulle dit nie met ons gedeel nie), hulle verduidelik nie dat daar nog 'n slaapkamer vir 4 in dieselfde eenheid is wat jy met nog 'n gesin deel nie. Die gemeenskaplike kombuis en leefarea is teen die slaapkamerdeur en die kombuis plus die leefarea is net groot genoeg vir een familie om te gebruik, die ander familie moet in die kamer wag tot jy klaar is. Een van die matrasse was deurgeslaap en een van die bedlampies het nie gewerk nie, toe ek aan die bedlamp se kabel raak het ek amper doodgeskok omdat die kabel teen die muurprop oop lewendige draad is (ongelooflike groot risiko vir kinders!). Die blinders is van riempies en daar is geen gordyne so die lig wat op die motors buite die venster skyn, skyn direk in die kamer in. Daar is ook geen lugverkoeling nie en jy kan nie die venster oopmaak as gevolg van al die insekte wat om die lig reg bo jou kop vlieg. Bly ook weg van die aandete wat vooruit bespreek kan word, heeltemal te duur vir wat jy kry, yskoud en die mikrogolf is stokoud, het geen glasbord in plus dit vat omtrent 15 min om een bord kos warm te maak. Wat 'n gemors!

Misleading advertisement and unsatisfactory accommodation.

There is no carport or WiFi (if there was they didn't share it with us), they don't explain that there is another bedroom for 4 in the same unit that you share with another family. The common kitchen and living area is against the bedroom door and the kitchen plus the living area is only big enough for one family to use, the other family has to wait in the room until you finish. One of the mattresses was slept through and one of the bedside lamps didn't work, when I touched the bedside lamp's cable I was almost shocked to death because the cable against the wall plug is an open live wire (unbelievably big risk for children!). The blinds are made of straps and there are no curtains so the light shining on the cars outside the window shines directly into the room. There is also no air conditioning and you can't open the window because of all the insects flying around the light right above your head. Also stay away from the dinner that can be booked in advance, way too expensive for what you get, ice cold and the microwave is stone cold, has no glass plate in it plus it takes about 15 min to heat one plate of food. What a mess!

Vale should look at information on advertisements vs. what you get if you sleep there. PHOTOS do not correspond at all to real amenities. Dinner prices vary. The price of, among other things, a burger is ridiculously expensive - compared to a normal wimpy burger. One expects at least a homemade 100% meat burger with enough side dishes? Won't just sleep there again.

All mentioned above.

Maklike oorslaapplek.

Naby genoeg om van die hoofpad af te draai en oor te stop en ver genoeg om nie geraas van die pad te hoor nie! Die aandete en ontbyt was uit die boonste rakke. Die akkommodasie self het 'n bietjie aandag nodig, veral wat die skoonheid van die skottelgoed, ketel, proppe, vloere en ligskakelaars betref. Niks wat 'n bietjie 'elbow grease' nie kan regmaak nie.

Easy sleepover.

Close enough to turn off the main road and pull over and far enough not to hear road noise! The dinner and breakfast were top notch. The accommodation itself is in need of some attention, particularly regarding the cleanliness of the dishes, kettle, plugs, floors and light switches. Nothing a little elbow grease can't fix.

Baie goeie oornag opsie.

Die plafonne kan oorgedoen word om meer klankdig te wees sodat jy nie die ander mense in ander deel van die lodge, kliphuis kan hoor nie.

The ceilings can be redone to be more soundproof so you can't hear the other people in other part of the lodge, stone house.

Teleurgesteld.

Die jaghuis opset het nie vir my gewerk nie. Jy kan elke woord en beweging in die ander slaapkamers hoor, dit is veral 'n probleem as dronk mense laat inkom. Die dak in die kamer en sitkamer het gelek. Die Chalets sal dalk beter werk.

The hunting lodge setup didn't work for me. You can hear every word and movement in the other bedrooms, this is especially a problem if drunk people come in late. The roof in the room and living room was leaking. The Chalets might work better.

Mooi plek, bietjie aandag nodig.

Dis 'n baie mooi en praktiese ligging, maar die beddens nodig opgradering (dit boog al na onder) en 'n ware plafon sodat die bure se gesprekke nie oor die skeidsmuur kan dra nie - ons het saans hulle hoor nag sê aan mekaar en soggens môre-groet. Braai-area en leefarea goed geskik vir goeie weer, die kombuis nodig wel 'n asblik. Goeie beligting sal ook nie skade doen nie, dis nogal duister met net bedlampies as beligting. Met die nodige opgraderings sal ons graag weer hier oorbly.

Nice place, needs some attention.

It's a very nice and practical location, but the beds need upgrading (they already bow downwards) and a real ceiling so that the neighbors' conversations can't carry over the partition wall - we heard them saying goodnight to each other at night and in the morning good morning Braai area and living area well suited for good weather, the kitchen does need a bin. Good lighting won't hurt either, it's quite dark with only bedside lamps as lighting. With the necessary upgrades we would love to stay here again.

Baie mooi en heeltemal toereikend vir kort verblyf.

Die enigste kritiek wat ek het is dat die kombuisgeriewe beter uitgelê kon gewees het. Daar is een muurprop wat die yskas, braaipan en ketel bedien en dit is te ver in die hoek wat dit moeilik maak om by te kom. Die krane is baie mooi en rustic maar heeltemal onprakties want hulle is nie hoog genoeg en jy sukkel om die ketel vol te maak. Die ketel het ook nie behoorlik gewerk nie. Anders as dit is dit 'n pragtige plek en was ons baie tevrede.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very nice and completely adequate for a short stay.

The only criticism I have is that the kitchen facilities could have been better laid out. There is one wall plug that serves the fridge, frying pan and kettle and it is too far in the corner making it difficult to reach. The taps are very beautiful and rustic but completely impractical because they are not high enough and you struggle to fill the kettle. The boiler was also not working properly. Other than that it is a beautiful place and we were very satisfied.

Uitstekende verblyf met uitmuntende diens.

Van die oomblik wat ons navraag gedoen het oor verblyf by Vale Karoo Farm, deur die hele kwotasie en kommunikasieproses tot die oomblik wat ons vertrek het, was die diens wat Simoné (bestuurder van Vale Karoo Farm) gegee het, absoluut uitmuntend. Sy is waarlik 'n positiewe toevoeging tot hierdie uitstekende verblyf. Haar vriendelikheid en vinnige en doeltreffende kommunikasie het die ervaring 'n plesier gemaak. Die akkommodasie is bo verwagting en uiters netjies en volledig voorberei. Die braaipakkies met hout en vuur-aanstekers het dit nog meer afgerond. Wat 'n fantastiese ervaring en ons sal Vale Karoo Farm enige tyd aanbeveel en selfs weer gaan besoek.

Excellent stay with excellent service.

From the moment we inquired about staying at Vale Karoo Farm, through the entire quote and communication process to the moment we left, the service provided by Simoné (manager of Vale Karoo Farm) was absolutely outstanding. She is truly a positive addition to this excellent accommodation. Her friendliness and quick and efficient communication made the experience a pleasure. The accommodation is beyond expectation and extremely neat and fully prepared. The braai packs with wood and fire lighters rounded it off even more. What a fantastic experience and we would recommend Vale Karoo Farm anytime and even visit again.

Nog steeds 'n staatmaker oorslaapplek sedert ons eerste besoek kort nadat hulle oopgemaak het.

Die paar uur se oorstaan van aankoms tot vertrek gee vir jou die gevoel asof jy vir daardie kort tydjie die eienaar van 'n stukkie Karoogrond is..Die kwaliteit van die vleis en wors in die braaipakkie is ook voortrefklik.

Still a stalwart place to stay since our first visit shortly after they opened.

Ons verblyf was baie teleurstellend.

Ons was baie teleurgesteld in die plek. Ons het alles by hulle aangekoop vir braai. Nadat ek gevra het of daar onderdakgeriewe is vir braai, is daar vir my die versekering gegee dat daar net donderbuie sal wees, as dit ooit gaan reën. Alles het uitgereën. Ons moes ook die vleis op 'n braaipan braai wat baie oud was en nie behoorlik gewerk het nie. Geen ander opsie of hulp is aangebied nie.

After asking if there were covered barbecue facilities, I was assured that if it ever rained, there would only be thunderstorms. Everything rained out. We also had to fry the meat on a frying pan which was very old and did not work properly. No other option or help was offered.

Teleurstellend.

Bly weg van die Hunters Lodge. Donker en grillerig. Vir seker nie waarde vir geld nie. Het vorige 2 aande op plaas in Oudshoorn oornag. Dieselfde betaal maar 100% beter. Sal verseker nie weer by The Vale oorbly nie.

Disappointing.

Stay away from the Hunters Lodge. Dark and creepy. Definitely not value for money. Spent the previous 2 nights on a farm in Oudshoorn. The same pays but 100% better. Will definitely not stay at The Vale again.

Oorslaap was so-so.

Eetgerei was vuil en vol vet van vorige gebruiker. Braaipakkies baie duur geprys. Moes betaal vir vuurmaakhout en vuuraanstekers. Hoekom nie ingesluit by braaipakkies se prys? Aandete in restaurant en ontbyt was oorweeg, maar nie gedoen a.g.v. prys. Badkamer in huis 11 is baie klein en ongemaklik. Ek glo daarin dat die eienaar self in sy eie eenhede moet oornag om tekortkominge te identifiseer. Ons reis al die afgelope 20 jaar langs die roete Sedgefield toe en die was eerste keer by The Vale Karoo. Sal volgende jaar liewers op ander plek oornag.

Overnight was so-so.

Cutlery was dirty and full of grease from previous user. Braai packs very expensively priced. Had to pay for firewood and firelighters. Why not included in the price of barbecue packages? Dinner in a restaurant and breakfast were considered, but not done because price. Bathroom in house 11 is very small and uncomfortable. I believe that the owner himself should spend the night in his own units to identify shortcomings. We have been traveling along the route to Sedgefield for the past 20 years and it was the first time at The Vale Karoo. Will prefer to spend the night in another place next year.

Kamers is donker, vol stof en nie baie prakties uiteengesit nie.

Vir dit wat ons betaal het, was dit nogals teleurstellend. Daar is 2 enkelbeddens in die klein kamer wat ook dien as kombuis/eetkamer, skaars genoeg plek om te werk of sit. Kombuistoerusting was vol stof. Wasbak se drein was geblok. Res van huisie vreeslik vol stof en badkamer ook nie baie skoon nie. Geen deurmat het beteken dat ons met ons modderige skoene in die huis moes loop terwyl dit reën. Oor die algemeen kort die instandhouding en skoonmaak van chalets meer aandag, in ons opinie.

Rooms are dark, full of dust and not very practically laid out.

For what we paid, it was quite disappointing. There are 2 single beds in the small room which also serves as a kitchen/dining room, barely enough space to work or sit. Kitchen equipment was full of dust. Sink drain was blocked. Rest of the house terribly full of dust and bathroom not very clean either. No doormat meant we had to walk in the house with our muddy shoes while it rained. In general, the maintenance and cleaning of chalets needs more attention, in our opinion.

Dam is vuil en kan nie swem nie. Drein het gestink en dis baie beknop.

So mooi ligging maar die huisies is beknop en onprakties. Geen lugversorging nie en dis baie warm in die eenhede. Die wasbakke is mooi maar onprakties. Die ontvangs was styf. Die dam is vuil en kan nie in geswem word nie. Die yskassie nie op standaard. Geen kussings vir die sitplekke buite. Die klein winkeltjie het omtrent niks in nie en volgende dorp is om en by 30 km weg. Die beligting in die eenhede is baie swak. So mooi ligging maar het baie meer verwag.

The Vale Karoo Farm 's response

Goeie dag,

Dankie vir u terugvoer aangaande u verblyf.

Ons vra onverskoning vir enige ongerief wat u ervaar het tydens u oornag by ons,

Neem asb. kennis dat weens droogte omstandighede en boorgate wat opgedroog ry ons water van ander plase af aan, dus is dit die rede vir geen swemgeriewe en dus is dit die rede waarom ons nerens swemgeriewe adverteer tydens hierdie kritiese tyd nie. Ons vra ook omverskoning dat u lugversorgers verwag het en dus slegs n waaier ontvang het in die eenheid, maar neem kennis dat ons nerens aandui dat eenhede lugversorgers beskik nie.
Ons sou waardeer dat u by ontvangs aangemeld het oor u bekommernisse tydens die verblyf dan kon ons vir u alternatiewe oplossings vind asook dat u kussings benodig het dan kon ons dit dadelik aan u voorsien het, omrede ons dit nie op die stoele plaas nie, weens die warm karoo son wat dit totniet gaan brand.

Hoop om julle weer by ons te kan verwelkom.

Vriendelike groete

Als was net lekker!

Ons het baie lekker gebly by die Vale Karoo. Dis lekker om by 'n dierevriendelike instansie te bly en die bestuur laat jou nie voel asof jy dinosaurs/krokodille/die plaag saambring nie. Die vriendelike dame by die ontvangs het uit haar pad gegaan om dinge gerieflik te maak - etes/braai hout/ander bykomstighede kan maklik deur haar gereël word. Dis ons nuwe "half way stop" van nou af!

Oulike kliphuisie.

Ons het in 'n Kliphuis gebly. Effe knap maar baie netjies en goed toegeruste kombuishoekie. Elke huisie het sy eie braaiplek en klein grasperk. Ons honde was saam, hulle moes maar op hul leibande bly, maar daar is baie staproetes. Kontantkroeg en voorafbespreekte kos is beskikbaar.

Cute stone house.

We stayed in a stone house. A little neat but very neat and well equipped kitchen nook. Each cottage has its own braai area and small lawn. Our dogs were with us, they just had to stay on their leashes, but there are many hiking trails. Cash bar and pre-booked food available.

Absoluut heerlikheid om in die skoon Karoo stilte uit te span in 'n netjiese, skoon plek.

Heerlike rus vir die siel na 'n lang reis.

Alhoewel ons laat daar aangekom het, het hulle ons met ope arms ontvang. Ons braaipakkie met braaibroodjies en slaai het in ons huisie gewag en ons kon net vuur aansteek en braai. Die huisie is volledig toegerus en ons het glad nie gesukkel nie. Ontbyt was vars en van 'n hoë gehalte. Baie goeie waarde vir geld. Sal die The Vale beslis aanbeveel.

Great rest for the soul after a long journey.

Although we arrived late, they welcomed us with open arms. Our barbecue package with barbecue sandwiches and salad was waiting in our little house and we could just light a fire and barbecue. The cottage is fully equipped and we had no problems at all. Breakfast was fresh and of a high quality. Very good value for money. Would definitely recommend The Vale.

Oase in die Karoo.

Party mense moet net ophou om iets te soek om oor te kla. Hierdie is nie 'n vyfsterhotel nie en jy betaal ook nie vir 'n vysterhotel nie. Gaan stap in die veld, kyk voëls, kyk na die sterre. Haal net asem. En hou op kla. Sal beslis weer hier oornag.

Oasis in the Karoo.

Some people have to stop looking for something to complain about. This is not a 5-star hotel and you're not paying for a 5-star hotel. Go and walk in the field, watch birds, go stargazing. Just breath. And stop complaining. Will definitely stay here again.

Teleurstellend.

Ons was baie teleurgesteld met die netheid van die huisie. Die beddegoed is oud en dun gewas en ons het die aand lou water gehad om te stort en die volgende oggend was die water yskoud. Dit was vir ons nie so aangename ondervinding nie.

Goeie ervaring.

Die Vale Karoo bied al die nodige geriewe. Wees egter gewaarsku dat die ekonomiese opsie die Jagtershut is wat beteken dat geriewe gedeel word met wild vreemdes. As privaatheid vir jou belangrik is kies 'n ander opsie. Die driegang-maaltyd is nie noodwendig geskik nie aangesien mens nie noodwendig lus is vir 'n groot maaltyd na 'n lang dag op die pad met peusel happies heeltyd nie. Alternatiewe opsies met kleiner en meer bekostigbare items word aanbeveel vir beide aandete en ontbyt.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Good experience.

The Vale Karoo offers all the necessary facilities. However, be warned that the economy option is the Jagtershut which means sharing facilities with wild strangers. If privacy is important to you choose another option. The three-course meal is not necessarily suitable as one does not necessarily feel like a big meal after a long day on the road with snacks all the time. Alternative options with smaller and more affordable items are recommended for both dinner and breakfast.

Hierdie is 'n oase op die lang N1. Ons het gereis met ons 11 maande oue seuntjie. Die eenheid was lekker groot. Daar is lekker grasperke en 'n plek om 'n koue bier drink te drink na die lang pad en ons seuntjie het die groot spasie in die saal baie geniet om rond te kruip. Aandete is beskikbaar op die plaas. Sal definitief weer daar bly.

Ek sal nie na ander oornagplekke as The Vale Karoo Farm soek op pad na Kaapstad nie.

Vale Karoo bied verskillende tipes akkommodasie en is uiters sentraal geleë vir reisigers vanaf Gauteng na Kaapstad. Baie aangename en bekostigbare etes is beskikbaar en die ontvangs is gasvry en vriendelik. Verblyf is uiters netjies en die akkommodasie is gerieflik naby die N1, maar tog so ver dat die verkeersbeweging glad nie steurend is nie. Op die plaas is ook geleentheid om die wye Karooruimte te verken deur te stap of bergfiets te ry.

I wouldn't look for other places to stay than The Vale Karoo Farm on my way to Cape Town.

Vale Karoo offers different types of accommodation and is extremely centrally located for travelers from Gauteng to Cape Town. Very pleasant and affordable meals are available and the reception is hospitable and friendly. Accommodation is extremely neat and the accommodation is conveniently close to the N1, yet so far that the traffic movement is not disturbing at all. On the farm there is also the opportunity to explore the wide Karoo space by walking or riding a mountain bike.

Vriendelike diens, goeie fasiliteite en mooi omgewing, etes bietjie duur.

Ons het vir 2 aande by The Vale gebly oppad terug vanaf Kaapstad na Pretoria. Die staf was regtig verskriklik behulpsaam en het uit hulle pad uitgegaan om ons tuis te laat voel. Ek voel persoonlik die aandetes is baie duur vir wat jy kry, om R130 te betaal vir 'n bordjie kos wat uit baie klein porsies bestaan is bietjie buitensporig. Vir daai prys verwag mens bietjie meer, my man was nog honger na die tyd. As jy nie van plan is om te braai nie sal ek voorstel jy ry eerder die 30 km Beaufort-Wes toe en gaan eet ietsie daar. Die stone cottage waarin ons gebly het was regtig baie mooi skoon en het al die geriewe gehad wat ons nodig gehad het. Ons seuntjie was mal oor die 3 perde en 1 ponie op die plaas asook die mooi boerbokke en het die groot plaasdam baie geniet. Die diere word regtig baie mooi opgepas en was dit 'n plesier om elke middag by hulle te gaan kuier.

Friendly service, good facilities and beautiful environment. Meals are a bit expensive.

We stayed there for 2 nights on our way to Pretoria. The staff were really helpful and went out of their way to make us feel at home. The meals were a bit expensive for what your get... For that price you expect more and the price shouldn't leave you hungry. If you're not planning to braai, then I'd recommend that you drive to Beaufort West and eat something there. The stone cottage in which we stayed was spotless and had all the facilities we needed. Our son loved the horses and the pony as well as the goats and the dam. The animals are care for and it was a pleasure to visit them everyday.

Klein oase na die lang pad.

Baie oulike plekkie. Die braaipakkie en braaibroodjies wat jy kan bestel om te braai is oulik. Heerlik geswem in die plaasdam. Die kamer is so klein bietjie knap as jy 'n camping cot probeer indra.

Te klein en beknop.

Die verblyf is netjies en mooi, gerieflik geleë en die plaasdam-swem was lekker, maar die eenhede was vir ons net hopeloos te klein en beknop. Vir 'n vinnige oorslaap en as jy nie self wil kosmaak nie, is dit voldoende. Maar ons het gebraai, die kombuisie is piepklein en deel van die slaapkamer. Daar is ook geen sit- of eetkamer nie, so as die weer sleg is, sal dit 'n probleem wees. Die buite braai-areas is ook glad nie baie privaat nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Too small and cramped.

Neat and beautiful accommodation with a lovely location. We also really enjoyed swimming in the farm dam. But the units were way too small and cramped. For a quick stopover and if you don't want to prepare meals yourself, this is sufficient. But we had a braai and the kitchenette is way too small and part of the bedroom. They don't have a sitting area or dining area which will be a problem if you have bad weather. The outside braai area isn't private.

Daar is 'n verskeidenheid tipes opsies van verblyf by Vale Karoo: lodge, kliphuisies, Hunters Lodge ens. Die ligging is baie sentraal vir reisigers tussen die Kaap en die Rand. Etes is uitstekend en veral die Karoolam wat vooraf bespreek kan word vir aandete is 'n wenner.

Pleasant surprise in the Karoo.

The service was absolutely wonderful. We received a phonecall to ascertain our estimated time of arrival and whether we would like dinner or a braai pack prepared. Very rustic and minimalistic but clean, comfortable beds, a fully equipped little kitchen and hospitality over an beyond what was expected. We were greeted by the friendly farm humans (smile) as well as some lovely, friendly farm animals. My next road trip down to Cape Town and back will definitely include an overnight stay at the Vale Karoo Farm.

Die kinders het met ons aankoms dadelik na die skilpaaie, perde, mak skaap en bokke gegaan en dit so geniet. Die huisie was pragtig skoon en ons het heerlik buite gesit en na die wolke wat opgesteek het, gekyk.

'n Ware oase in die Karoo.

Na 'n lang pad van Pretoria met baie padwerke is ons baie vriendelik ontvang by The Vale Karoo, 'n ware oase. Ons het later die middag met 'n strawberry cocktail in die hand heerlik op die stoep ontspan. Ons blyplekkie vir die aand was pragtig ingerig met alles wat mens nodig het, kraakvars linne wat jou behoorlik laat voel of jy op 'n wolkie slaap.

Waarde vir geld, skoon, pure Karoo, lekker plaasdam en ook vriendelike mense!

Net die plek om oor te slaap! Ons het 'n braai by die chalet gereël voor die tyd. Vleis, hout, slaai en broodjies is netjies afgelewer by ons chalet. Lekker gebraai onder die Karoo-sterre! Die restaurant se kos het ook baie lekker gelyk. Het ook bergfietse saamgevat en gery deur die plaas.

Value for money, clean, pure Karoo, nice farm dam and also friendly people!

Just the place to sleep over! We organized a braai at the chalet ahead of time. Meat, wood, salad and buns were neatly delivered to our chalet. Nice barbecue under the Karoo stars! The restaurant's food also looked very tasty. Also took mountain bikes and rode around the farm.

Heerlik!

Na 'n lang reis deur die Karoo, was dit soos 'n oase. Ons was moeg en warm, en het heerlik ontspan. Die braai onder die peperboom was 'n fees! Die kamer was skoon, netjies en sommer net lekker.

Delicious!

After a long journey through the Karoo, it was like an oasis. We were tired and hot, and had a great time relaxing. The barbecue under the pepper tree was a feast! The room was clean, tidy and just nice.

Ons het stilte en rustigheid gesoek en dit gekry.

Die gastehuiskamer was uitstekend. Moenie TV's verwag nie; hierdie plek is juis vir mense wat wil wegbreek van die stad se besige lewe.

We sought peace and quiet and found it.

The guesthouse room was excellent. Don't expect TVs; this place is exactly for people who want to get away from the city's busy life.
